The hard edit after Jesse's "if we go all the way" slip makes me wonder if they had to cut out footage of the guys just dying. I had this on in the background and did a double take when I heard that
Funny stuff boys! As for 'cleaned his clock', think of it like the clock is the brain, and cleaned is time being reset. As in getting hit so hard he forgot where he was and what time it is. That's how we used it anyway. Another great show from my favorite hockey nerds.
If you guys are going to keep a running contender for game of the week/year you should include and video of the the reigning champ. When you guys say “the Bouchard goal” or whatever, I can’t remember what it looks like. Would help to have a comparison for the viewer between nice goals
Switzerland will have 2026 available Steiner and hopefully 15 year old and 2027 draft available Jonah Neuenschwander (made his pro debut in the swiss league) on their roster. These two should be fun to watch.
Like Staios said after he learned that Yakemchuk didnt get selected for the camp if any of Yakemchuk, Cristall, Parekh, and Sennecke (dont think Sennecke or Parkeh were close to making the NHL team) but Team Canada would be calling begging for the NHL teams to release them for the WJC. Canada has always been weird with their selections especially the last couple seasons team has a ton of skill regardless so hopefully they do a lot better than last season
I’m from Sweden and I feel like we have a good chance this year again. I won’t be surprised if we make it to the finals BUT we WILL fall under pressure like we always do in the gold medal game in these world junior finals. So I’m predicting Canada winning gold and we like always losing
@@Connoryt22 No.. the rules state if you are over 18 you can wear a visor. And since Martone wears a visor in the CHL, he would opt to wear one here. Draft status has nothing to do with it
For them to not include Parekh because of any defensive issues, that would mean Yakemchuk is the lock, he also scored 30+ as a defenseman and is large with a physical game and long reach. It's purely political
I can say as a Finn that people will be surprised how well Finland plays. And by the way you don't have no idea how good Finland's stater as goalie is, I mean Petteri Rimpinen. He is 18 years old goalie, which plays as starter in Liiga and their team came to Liiga from Mestis (1st division) and he started as 2nd goalie, but starter injured and now Kiekko-Espoo is 4th in Liiga or something. They have also Noa Vali from TPS who will be "backup". Finland have Helenius, Kumpulainen, Hemming, Kiiskinen, Halttunen (offense) and Kiviharju, Pulkkinen (defence) for example. So nothing new when people underestimate Finns and then are in semi-finals and people are like HOW?! And most of the players are playing against men daily, because they are playing in Liiga/AHL or something.
Since there has not been a Habs question in a while Here’s a final boss question name every 50 goal scorer there has been only 5 throughout this historic Maurice Richard, Guy Lafleur, Steve Shutt, Pierre Larouche, Stephane Richer
How Jesse say Tre Kronor sounds like Trey Krowner or with a C Crowner. So I get how they think it sounds like a person because that sounded so American (I know he is Canadian)
36:50 These players dont "grow on PALM TREES" COME ON Z IT WAS RIGHT THERE! U know the sabres have hit a new low when fans start bringing in those mini palm trees u can have in ur house.
2:01 "I've had enough of losing" His team literally has 24 cups banners hanging in the rafters. Meanwhile; there are teams (The Sabres), who would kill, just to be IN the playoffs.
I'm not sure exactly how old Poc is, but he might not have been born the last time they won in 1993. If he was, he likely wasn't more than a few years old and probably doesn't have much memory of it.
The better question to Ottawa isnt why is your rink the middle of nowhere but why is your Ebug not at the arena before warmups just in case anything happens? I'd be more pissed at his work boss to not let him out of work early just to get to the games on time during hockey season. Next thing to add to the channel get the gang to take turns running a lap with a full goalie bag just to see how heavy that shit is.
It’s so weird that a kid already drafted can still play in college but the team that drafted him still has the rights for him whenever he comes out. It doesn’t work that way in say baseball. The only other league where guys can be drafted out of HS. If you decide you go to college then the team that drafted you is shit out of luck.
Czech team feels stronger than ever this year and this prediction...just doesnt feel very serious..almost feels like they dont understand that czech league has pretty good quality too... as the players in it. My prediction is that Czechia will take silver this year. 🎉
Looking forward to the Nordic teams showing up and smoking some teams. If Sweden or Finland wipe the floor with us (canada) Hockey Canada might wake up some more. We've trended in the right direction by playing non full ice hockey at young ages but I still want us to get a wake up and fix our national goaltending problem, because as long as we keep having goaltending training privatized we're never going to be matching the Nordics or the US again. Luca I dont think a pro player should need an excuse to be motivated to be playing a children's game for millions of dollars. Your getting paid to play 82 games. Normal people get fired for not trying at their jobs if a players contract isnt enough to motivate them to play a full 60 minute game every game then maybe they should terminate their contract and stop playing. They also make enough money to seek out the best in sports psychs to get their head back into the game
Marchment scored a goal that looks similar to McDavid's goal of the year but because he plays for the stars they're treating it like it was an average goal. Clear bias towards Canada for a hockey podcast. Disgraceful
"Fun holiday"? Hockey is life. Jokes aside, i honestly forgot we even made it to the final, couldn't even remember who we played. Obviously there's still gonna be people who do remember but honestly im just hoping it's gonna be a bit calmer than last year 😅
Thomas is been the best addition to the team.
Much more humble
The hard edit after Jesse's "if we go all the way" slip makes me wonder if they had to cut out footage of the guys just dying. I had this on in the background and did a double take when I heard that
Bubble boy, 'go all the way', cleanest clocks, cagers..
Pretty funny episode 😂
Bardown doesn’t get credit for their humour tbh, the podcasts are actually quite funny
Puljujärvi and Laine both wore cages in WJC 2016 when they lead the tournament in points with Aho, it's not unheard of.
Funny stuff boys! As for 'cleaned his clock', think of it like the clock is the brain, and cleaned is time being reset. As in getting hit so hard he forgot where he was and what time it is. That's how we used it anyway. Another great show from my favorite hockey nerds.
43:52 didn’t expect a ms state reference in a BarDown podcast. Hail state!
Canucks coach "you need to be jacked up to play this game!" That one statement got me jacked up....its midnight in here by the way! 👽👿😏
Do a podcast about the best teams overall time including franchise changes. That would be an interesting one.
Tournament MVP: Trey Croner 👑👑👑

Will be at the pre-tournament game this Thursday
Glad if Switzerland can even score this tournament.
@@Mathias_Eggimann Steiner at 17 against Canada was stealing the puck off them and dishing to teammates, I'd expect he gets a few

I’m so excited I’m working as a chef over there at td getting to see kazakthan is a honor
Martone won’t have a cage, he is 18
still he could you never know he still has not been drafted yet
@@Connoryt22 No.. the rules state if you are over 18 you can wear a visor. And since Martone wears a visor in the CHL, he would opt to wear one here.
Draft status has nothing to do with it
Biggest snubs- yakemchuk and misa
BarDown goal of the week has to be Laughton's breakaway slapper on his 4 point night
Big disrespect to Czechia. They have the deepest team they’ve had in years. I expect them to be very competitive.

I hope Switzerland can score once this tournament.
I want to hear what they chose for goal song.
So czechia is not viewed as dark horse or they have bad line up 😅
That makes us even darker horse!
Was hoping sennecke would be there to better understand why anaheim took him 3rd overall

Not trying to hate at all I love the cast right now Thomas is amazing… but I really miss corwin
McKenna will win MVP
Gavin McKenna will be the point leader in this tournament. Its not a hot take lol.
3:35 hit the nail on the head
How Jesse say Tre Kronor sounds like Trey Krowner or with a C Crowner. So I get how they think it sounds like a person because that sounded so American (I know he is Canadian)
36:50 These players dont "grow on PALM TREES" COME ON Z IT WAS RIGHT THERE! U know the sabres have hit a new low when fans start bringing in those mini palm trees u can have in ur house.
I whiffed
Kadris jumping over the player is the top goal...
Why was Misa left off? Anyone know? Too small?
Too young. Canada always relies on the older and more experienced players.
@ Ahh, thanks
anyone know who Z used to cheer for before the Sabres? Just curious.
He’s a leafs fan
@@gabez9541 Was a Leafs fan, then was neutral for a few years before rooting for the Sabres because I love their jerseys lol.
@@danielzakrzewski.bardown oh dang! I didn’t realize the conversion was that deep 😂
I get it Thomas, I have a signed Beau Bennet jersey.
PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASSEEEEE do a world junior jersey quiz
Thomas needs to be relieved of his GOTW duties
You guys missed Connor McDavid's goal against Tampa?
Denver barkey also got snubbed
2:01 "I've had enough of losing" His team literally has 24 cups banners hanging in the rafters. Meanwhile; there are teams (The Sabres), who would kill, just to be IN the playoffs.

Im just excited to watch my Chicago Wolves boy Bradley Nadeau
Few talk about Dahlins abscense's importance for Sabres losing.
Maybe not the biggest snub, but Sam Rinzel should have been on Team USA. He is having a hell of a year for Minnesota.
He is too old. 04s are not allowed to play.
LETS GOOOOO! Are you Kidden me
Is there a cat in this video? don't know if those are meows or I'm just hearing something
I like the low numbers in the tournament and overall in hockey.
It's a good tradition but USA ruins it it with the high numbers.
Move Pac off the goals job!
Tre Krones for the eBUG! lol
25:25 *sad trombone noise* Stolarz out 4-6 weeks Injury prone Woll now has to be starter.......Panic?

Didn't they just talk about how good of a team USA was going to have in the last video?

all i know is ASP is gonna win defenseman of the tournament again
Bubble buddies
Gabe Perrault will save the Rangers
Yall should do a video each ranking your top 10 favorite jerseys in league history
watching the avs must be taking a toll on luca, look at that gray hair!
Just another north american source that overlooks Finland. Just like every year.
Can we please get some guys from europe to the podcast to balance things out 😂
Sabres 10 game losing streak, they did not keep it rolling
They were cursed by winning the Jumbo Joe retirement game.

Jesse is SLEEPING on the Caps. Caps are gonna clean his clock when they make it to the playoffs and are a top 3 team in the league
still nothig new only nhl picks nothing more no other leagues
Marchment scored a goal that looks similar to McDavid's goal of the year but because he plays for the stars they're treating it like it was an average goal. Clear bias towards Canada for a hockey podcast. Disgraceful
finland win ez come here after and clown me when we lose 1st round of playofs canada ez, sweden ez, usa? stupid questin
If you beat Sweden that's really all that matters.
Sweden will beat you though 🇸🇪
@Mega-rw8mt I trust you!
These guys are the worst
Has Sweden recovered from the tantrum they threw last year? Did they forget it's just a fun holiday tourney?
"Fun holiday"? Hockey is life.
Jokes aside, i honestly forgot we even made it to the final, couldn't even remember who we played. Obviously there's still gonna be people who do remember but honestly im just hoping it's gonna be a bit calmer than last year 😅
You don't play it to have fun.
Fun you can have outside the ice.
Winning is everything, everything outside it's a bonus.
